G RADING P OLICY Grades are determined as follows Assessments 60% In-class Activities 40% Each unit will have a common assessment. Students must meet minimum standards on the assessment (70%). If they do not meet, students will be required to attend a re-teaching lesson and retake the assessment until mastery is shown. This will ensure students are leaving with a guaranteed curriculum. Students will also receive a standards mastery grade at the end of each trimester according to the D54 Junior High science descriptors found on the report card.

S TANDARD B ASED G RADES 1 Cite specific evidence to support the analysis of science and technical information. 2 Determine the central ideas or conclusion of scientific information; provide an accurate summary distinct from prior knowledge or opinions. 3 Precisely follow or design a multistep procedure when carrying out experiments, using computational thinking, or performing technical tasks. 4 Determine the meaning of symbols, key terms and other domain- specific words and phrases as they are used in a specific scientific or technical context. 5 Integrate quantitative or technical information with information expressed visually (e.g., in a flowchart, diagram, model, graph, or table). 6 Analyze quantitative or technical information gained from experiments, simulations, videos, or multimedia

G RIT Grit is having the ability to persevere through a challenging problem. It is hard to watch a child struggle, and our natural response is to jump in and help them. However, our children need opportunities to experience productive struggles in a safe environment in order to build their endurance for grit as well as to build confidence in their own abilities. Example of talking about grit with your child – Instead of “how was your day or what did you learn today”, ask “What is something that you struggled with today? How did you deal with it?”
